Bass guitarists are very important band members

>bass guitarists are very important band members

>they're not

maybe not in all the shitty metal bands you like

you must be retarded to think they are not important

why d id u post a selfie...

I love bass

>metal
>shitty
t-take it back

Honestly, bass is either unnoticeable or distracting in music. Like either I can't tell it's there at all or it's distracting as fuck, in which case I just remove it. Most music I just remove the bass after I download it.

>bands don't need moderators
Stop

>lead guitarists aren’t egotistical wankers

What the fuck are you talking about, bass isn't "distracting".

So, how long you been playing bass, buddy?

>I like my music without low end

you what

>I know what the term "low end" means

Anyone who thinks bass guitars arent important has never been in a band

the only people who think bass guitar is important are bass guitarists

Drumfag here, honestly if the bassist is good, it just becomes super smooth and fun as fuck to play, everything just flows fantastically well. But they need to be good - and coming across a good bassist is pretty hard.

didn't read this post

Yeah, I've heard this for years, same with drummers. Never understood it at all.

...

Let me guess you listen to nigger speak and you love death grips, and you have never played an instrument in your life... Typical Sup Forums faggot

didn't read this post

You could be prating your instrument instead of shitposting

even in hiphop bass is essential, OP is just a fag

Bass is literally the easiest instrument to play.

...

But only a few can play good.

damn...

It's the easiest to get started which is why so many people flock to it and play it while not having any idea of how to get good at it - or even try to get good at it. The ones that do dedicate themselves are actually really good and add to the music, but they're a rarity.

fuck you brandon

>bassist
>pretty good
>every other bassist I've seen is either trying to learn RHCP songs right from the bat or only plays root notes
h-hold me anons

I've never played an instrument in my life you fucking dunce

>they have a bassist

Yeah I'm pointing out how much of a failure you are

I second this

I'm a successful visual artist fucking retard

Nah, you're not

I made 80k this year selling my work

in my opinion the bass just fucks up the rythm of the song, so yeah, a band without a bassist is way better.

Acoustikek here. I love the prominent bass on Blood on the Tracks, it really elevates the whole album.

...

Here's a (You). Like anyone cares how much money some user faggot makes, your a joke.

I lied, I'm actually NEET and made 0 dollars this year. Bass is still shit though.

The best basses around!

Can someone truly be this retarded?

My point exactly, now go pick up an instrument!

You wouldn't know either way

>not listening to RHCP

Bass is a top tier instrument. A good bassist can make a band fucking amazing. And everyone knows bassists have the best dance moves.

you couldn't get more pleb that this.

this guy is one of the reasons bass players are being mocked by everyone. walking stereotype

>bassist with a receding hairline

not surprised

>Distracting
...From what?

>removing bass from music
are you actually fucking stupid?

Porn.

It has a very low learning curve so it's easy to pick up but a very high ceiling, most people plateau after they learn a few progressions and walking scales

you should really try something else than ac/dc

kys tripfaggot

10/10 actually worked

nice

absolutely epic

>Never heard of Primus

They are but aesthetically ugly

My neighbor makes world known basses. Should I become his apprentice?

Does he really? Who is it? If this isn't a joke you absolutely should.

Yeah, I can't remember his name, but he made basses for popular American metal bands. He's looking for apprentice luthiers.
I was looking at guitar luthiers near me, and I found this guy, I didn't even know that the guy was my neighbour.
My problem is that I'm not that interested in basses, but again, I'd probably get some recognition and I would learn a lot.

Golden opportunity, go for it.

>drummer is just the metronome of the group

>not turning the bass up

Reminder that there are people on Sup Forums RIGHT NOW who think guitar is difficult

Maybe they simply don't give a fuck about guitar?

Maybe they simply dig accordion?

listen to 10 post-punk albums and see if you still feel this way

BEAT IT.

Gross. What the fuck is this?

>receding hairline/early-onset male-pattern baldness is a common sign of unusually high testosterone
is bass guitar the least nu-male instrument?

>Not playing whamola

>he listens to bad music
sorry 4 u desu!
